I am passionate about all aspects of public health, especially family and reproductive health. Through various encounters, I have been able to gain knowledge and enhance my skills in public health practices. Public health reigns as the foundation of our society and incorporate medicine, research, social interactions, and advocacy in a broad scope. There are many ways one can practice and advocate for public health; I choose to do so through research and health information communication to dismantle barriers preventing access to affordable care and involve myself in my various community efforts.
